• stable lever guidance in individual positions,
• clear and repeatable mode selection,
• proper cooperation with the vehicle's control modules.

The original BMW design minimizes the risk of communication errors between the selector and the transmission controller, which translates into predictable operation of the drivetrain.

• The ability to restore the correct operation of the automatic transmission after the failure of the previous selector.

The used OEM component is a sensible choice for users who want to maintain high vehicle functionality at controlled service costs.
